Officer's son recovering after robbery, shooting

Spencer Davis, 20, shot on Feb. 5

A police lieutenant's son, critically injured in an armed robbery, could be released from the hospital by the end of the week.

Spencer Davis, 20, of Oklahoma City, is recovering at Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation after he was shot in the leg on Feb. 5.

"I'm feeling much better," said Davis. "Hopefully, I will be out of here by the end of the week."

Davis told Eyewitness News 5 that his right leg is partially numb.

"I can feel the back of my calf, but that's about it," he added.

Doctors expect Davis to walk again on his own.

"He was hit in his femoral artery and had some injuries around his pelvis and in that region," said Dr. Shawn Smith, who has been working with Davis throughout his rehab.

"He has some obstacles to overcome, but with hard work and additional therapy, I think he will make a comeback," Smith said.

Davis says he plans on playing college football in the fall.

Police arrested Christopher O'Neil and Marquise Allen in connection with the shooting.
